Things To Ponder and Sleep on


My most reflective and creative times are the early hours of the morning between 3 and 5am, when I lie awake and let my mind go where it wants to ......... well, mostly.  If it strays too long on the negative, I coax it back to thoughts of gratitude, from which more positive thoughts once again flow.

The Drawer under my desk in my studio is filled with scraps of paper, with thoughts and ideas scribbled down in these wee hours.  Notebooks and sketchpads, filled with scribblings and doodles - embryos of new poems, stories and paintings.  Often a single word or sentence will spark an idea or a verse.  Today I'd like to share a couple of these with you.  Firstly a poem which - as is usual - evolved in one of these early morning 'sessions'.

Return to Soul - A poem by Kim D
“They say you reap that which you sow
And this is true, for this I know
There was a time my life was dark
When sadness filled my lonely heart
For far too long my heart did cry
And when at last I questioned why
I looked in my neglected soul
To find a dark and gaping hole
And realized that the hurt I felt
To others and myself I’d dealt
And then as my awakening grew
My soul did show me what to do
And from a journey painful and slow
My inner beauty began to show
And as it grew my heart did lift
To happier times my life did shift
So this is what you need to do
For the law of attraction to work for you
Surround yourself with that which you seek
Joy, love and happiness each day of the week
Your thoughts and actions shape your day
As does each word that you do say
The universe reflects it back at you
So to your heart and soul be true.”

And then I’d like to leave you with the following thought:

‘Our lives on this planet are fragile and short, so if we're to leave something behind, let it be love, hope and happiness, for surely that is then what we will take with us on our next  journey too!’

A Conscious Start

I have started this blog to share my beliefs, hopes, fears and experiences of life with others in the hope that it can be of benefit to others out there.  Although my focus will be more on the feminine spirit, mind and body, it is for all who pay this site a visit.

My hope is that by sharing our feelings, beliefs and experiences we can learn to live more holistic lives, in tune with not only the wonderful natural world around us, but also the beautiful, creative spirits which are at the core of each one of us.  Let us connect together and share in the wonder of all life on this beautiful planet.  Life is truly a unique gift and we need to honour and cherish every minute.

Love & Light......

EARTH ANGEL - A poem by Kim D
"Beautiful planet earth, there is but one
But alas, look around and see what we’ve done
To her life giving forests, her plants and her trees
To the magnificent animals, we should be on our knees
Asking for forgiveness, for treating them so bad
Why are humans so destructive, it really is sad
If I had but one wish, it would most definitely be
To open everyone’s eyes so they can truly see
The beauty, the magick, the joy and the bliss
The splendour that mother earth surely is
To spread love and healing from north to south pole
And in so doing also heal each human’s soul
One planet, one wish – that’s the name of the game
I really do hope that you wish for the same."
